JELADO Duffle Vest Black [CT41512]

The BASIC COLLECTION is rooted in JELADO's core concept of "good old things with toppings." This collection not only reinterprets vintage styles with new embellishments, designs, and sizing adjustments, but also updates previously released JELADO items by carefully selecting fabrics and secondary materials suitable for the current season and making continuous, subtle refinements.

This piece is crafted based on the construction of a 1940s duffle coat.
This time, we have created a high-end vest using Ezo deer leather, a rare type of deerskin.
We use a thick leather, approximately 1.8mm, which is thicker than standard deerskin.
The Ezo deer leather, sourced from deer living in Hokkaido, is full-vegetable tanned and dyed solely with dyes, without pigments. An Italian hard wax finish is then applied, which brings out natural variations, scorch marks from friction, and a beautiful luster.
Combined with the natural scars unique to wild deer that roam through the forests, the leather has a vintage-like finish.
The front features not only toggle closures but also a zipper underneath, blocking wind intrusion and providing practical, high wind resistance.
Another key detail is the use of vintage-style toggles sourced from America.
The lining is 100% cupro, a practical fabric that prevents static electricity.
The large patch pockets on the front also make a bold statement.
The large hood is also a key feature, making this item an accent to any outfit when paired with a shirt or cut-and-sewn, resulting in a new style of military vest with excellent functionality.
